ABOUT ASAHI BEER USA / OCTOPI BREWING

Founded in 2014 as a Wisconsin contract brewery, Octopi Brewing has spent over a decade brewing and packaging beer, seltzers, RTDs, and sodas for clients nationwide. In 2024, Asahi — brewers of Asahi Super Dry — acquired Octopi, making us the U.S. production home of Super Dry. Today, our 250+ person team of beverage industry pros keeps that same local, quality-first spirit alive at a state-of-the-art facility. Our Warehouse team keeps raw materials, packaging, and finished product moving accurately between our facilities, co-packing partners, and distribution.

THE OPPORTUNITY

We're looking for Warehouse Associates to help keep materials and finished product moving safely and accurately — receiving, storing, picking, staging, and shipping product so the rest of our operation never has to slow down. We're hiring at two nearby locations — Windsor and our Uniek DC in Waunakee — just 7 minutes apart.

WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE GREAT

• Hands-on, active work — you're moving, not sitting still

• Directly support production and distribution, so your work has a visible daily impact

• Room to build real warehouse and logistics skills, including equipment operation and inventory systems

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Safely receive, move, store, pick, stage, load, and ship raw materials, packaging materials, and finished goods

• Support accurate shipping and receiving — verifying product quantities, conditions, and documentation

• Help maintain inventory accuracy, following FIFO/FEFO practices and proper product placement

• Keep the warehouse safe, clean, and organized, using required PPE and following safety procedures

• Communicate issues, discrepancies, or safety concerns to your supervisor

WHAT YOU BRING

Must-haves:

• High school diploma or equivalent

• Able to lift, move, carry, push, and pull up to 50 lbs regularly and up to 160 lbs occasionally

• Comfortable twisting, turning, crouching, stooping, and squatting repeatedly throughout the workday

• Committed to workplace safety and following all safety policies and procedures

Nice-to-haves:

• Previous warehouse, distribution, logistics, or manufacturing experience

• Experience in the beverage, food, CPG, or distribution industry

• Experience operating warehouse equipment and RF scanning systems

• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, Excel, and warehouse/ERP systems

BENEFITS & PERKS

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage — effective the 1st of the month after 30 days

• Company-paid life, short-term, and long-term disability insurance

• 401(k) eligible after 3 months, with company match — 100% up to 3%, 50% on the next 2%

• 120 hours of PTO annually, with accrual that grows the longer you're here

• 9 paid holidays (if they fall on your scheduled workday)

• A free beer after shift, because you earned it

CURRENTLY HIRING FOR

• 1st Shift — Windsor Warehouse — Monday–Friday, 7:00am–3:00pm

• 2nd Shift — Uniek DC (Waunakee) — Monday–Friday, 2:00pm–10:00pm 

During the application process, you'll be asked which location and shift you're interested in.

PAY BY SHIFT

Base rate for this role is $20.00/hr. Shifts outside of 1st shift include an additional shift differential on top of that base — never a lower starting rate, just added pay for the shift.

• 1st Shift — $20.00/hr (base rate)

• 2nd Shift — $20.00/hr base + $3.00/hr shift differential = $23.00/hr

• 3rd Shift — $20.00/hr base + $4.00/hr shift differential = $24.00/hr

• Weekend Day — $20.00/hr base + $5.75/hr shift differential = $25.75/hr

• Weekend Night — $20.00/hr base + $7.75/hr shift differential = $27.75/hr
